The video tutorial explains Earth's two primary movements: rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to Earth spinning on its axis, causing day and night, and takes 24 hours. Revolution is Earth's orbit around the sun, taking 365.25 days, and is responsible for the seasons. Both movements occur simultaneously, with rotation causing daily cycles and revolution influencing yearly changes. The video uses diagrams to illustrate these concepts and emphasizes the importance of understanding the differences between rotation and revolution.
